    a clue 🤔 I probably would not give 66 away ☺️ you may guess again if you wished (cause I know you know better) @logger7 unless you guessed to loose 😂

    @logger7 said:
    Since you only collect the best PCGS coins, I'll say MS66 rb.

    But, But, But! Not so long ago you offered to give a newby a Matte Proof Lincoln! :#

    AU55 details, cleaned. The color is off for an Indian cent with the "L". I suspect that is why the date has been hidden ... most will think it is copper-nickel when it is actually bronze.

    Indeed, did not notice the L.

    One the ribbon next to the lowest feather. It was added partway through 1864 on the bronze coins and appears on all later dates.

    @redraider said:
    MS63….has to be 1886 or after due to the bottom feather placement. Rule out the S mintmark. Just a stab and could be completely wrong (probably am wrong)….1896 with the strike weakness.

    For what it’s worth, it’s a RB coin that graded BN.

    I think I see evidence of some mint luster in the reverse image. So, the piece is at least AU-50 if it received a straight grade. Now, IF I could see color images, I would likely be able to make a better guess.

    Since this is all in fun, I'm going to go with "Questionable Color, Uncirculated Details."

    It's such a very beautiful coin, should grade higher than MS 63 and would be a shame if it graded lower. (That's my guess too!)

    May the best guesser be pecked, I mean picked. Or maybe I do mean pecked. :p

    Thanks for the hint. I want to give myself the best chance possible for this lucky penny. It is an attractive piece but I don't think it will quite make choice uncirculated so I'm going with...(drum roll)...
